I would be suspicious...I was looking at the Kenwood and Alpine Stereo systems that they have and 69� for a 12" Sub is damn cheap. You can�t even get a 12" Blaupunkt sub for less than 129� in the stores. But, you never know...maybe they get some good deals. Let us know how it goes Jer...if it works out for you I�m going to snag me a new stereo system for my cochecito.

the site looks amazing, may be too good to be true.
as for pricing, same happened to me, the product i am looking to buy is 500-800 euros cheaper at redcoon than on other sites/in other stores i have seen it at. it is 800� less than the highest price i have seen and 500� less than the cheapest
if it were only 100-200 euros lower at redcoon, i would not doubt them but the savings there seem too good to be true.
a HUGE savings so i was skeptical about the site but maybe it is just simply the best priced shop online?
gonna go look into their reputation for a while. will keep you updated here.
I guess one thing you could do is buy a cheaper product that maybe you don�t necessarily need just to try it out. Spend 30 bucks or whatever you can afford to lose if it�s a scam...if it�s not a scam it looks like you come out winning by saving that much money.

hey Shiloh, good idea but i have been online today reading consumer reviews and comments about redcoon on many different forums and they have all been very positive.
He recibido la pantalla a trav�s de Seur, he podido ver antes la caja de pagar (a contrarreembolso, por si las moscas) y la tele es la misma que me venden en El Corte Ingl�s, pero casi ��� 1.000 euros m�s barata !!!.
DOH!!! i did not realize until now that i can pay c.o.d.!!!
Are you sure redcoon are cheap? They are astronomically expensive for mp3 players. Even the manufacturer websites are cheaper.
Have you considered buying from the UK? For some strange reason electronics are much cheaper there than in Spain, they are usually happy to send to Spain too. You need an adaptor for the plug, but it is the same voltage here as in Britain, the adaptor is for the shape of the pin, and you can get those for 2� in El Corte Ingl�s.
yes, i did searches in uk webshops for my product but they can't compete with redcoon either.
some of them are close on the retail price (maybe 200�-300� more) but then they want a fortune for shipping to spain since the product i am buying is so big, making the purchase as expensive as the corte ingl�s
just wanted to post back and give my GLOWING THREE THUMBS UP IN Z FORMATION :jeje: recommendation for http://es.redcoon.com
my purchase was PERFECT from start to finish and i saved 800 euros on my new tv. granted, some items are not much cheaper (and maybe even more expensive) at redcoon but it worked for me BIGTIME and it is definitely worth checking for your item there when comparison shopping.
how it went down...
1) placed my order online on monday, nov. 15th (midday). i chose the c.o.d. method as it was my first purchase via redcoon and, as this thread shows, i was hesitant to order as the price was sooooo low on what i wanted to buy.
NOTE: redcoon does not even accept credit cards online so when one orders, they need to choose to pay either via bank wire or c.o.d. the c.o.d. option has a small additional fee (depending on the price of your order) which they inform you of before you send your order.
2) instantly after placing the order, i received an order confirmation and was told my item would ship within 48 hours and that i would receive a phone call the day before the item went out.
3) on tuesday, nov. 16th, a customer service rep. from redcoon spain called me to tell me that my item would be shipped on wednesday, nov. 17th for delivery on thursday, nov. 18th. they use SEUR (courier) for shipping and could not tell me the exact delivery time but they did tell me it would be in the morning (before 2pm).
4) on thursday morning at 10:00am i received a call from the courier asking me if i would be home around 11:00-11:30pm. i told him yes and he said he hoped to be here by 11:30am.
5) at 11:15am (same day) my doorbell rang and it was the courier with muy order. i accepted the merchandise, paid him in cash for the order total and he was on his way.
PERFECTION!!!
Shiloh, you can go ahead and order that woofer now redcoon spain is actually based out of barcelona so you may get your order even faster than i did and mine arrived 3 days after ordering
